Levels

The amount of Mysticality required to attain level L follows the formula Mysticality = L2 - 2L+ 5.

Class-Specific Powers

  • Pasta Thralls: Pastamancers can summon a Pasta Thrall to them which provide additional effects during combat. Pasta Thralls can gain experience, and gain new effects at levels 5 and 10. Other classes can try to summon one, but will only receive 10 turns of a related effect instead of a Thrall. Both summoned Thralls and trying to bind a Thrall for its Non-Pastamancer effect will dismiss any other Thrall or remove other Non-Pastamancer effects.
  • +50% MP: Pastamancers (and Saucerors) have an innate 50% bonus to their maximum MP.
  • +5% Elemental Resistance: Pastamancers (and Saucerors) have an innate 5% resistance to elemental damage. This resistance applies only to damage, and will not pass tests that check for levels of elemental resistance (like Guano Junction).
  • MP from Pasta: Pastamancers gain MP when eating pasta dishes, based on the fullness of the dish. 3-7 MP is gained per fullness of the food, with the following message:
You draw power from the pasta. Delicious power.
MPYou gain X Mana Points.

Class Gear

Notes

  • Elements for pasta spells have equal probabilities, despite the fact that some elements have more hit messages than others.
  • Elemental pasta spells cast against elemental creatures will never be of that creature's element (e.g., hot damage will never occur against a hot creature, so you never do 1 damage), assuming you do not have equipment or an effect that forces spells to be of that element.

History

References

  • The Pastamancer is the KoL equivalent of the Necromancer class from D&D, whose strength revolved around the summoning of undead minions.
  • The title for the second level is perplexing, since although they are indeed made from dough, most noodles do not contain yeast.
